About online courses

Online courses may be offered in four, eight, or 16-week formats.
The enrollment schedule follows the standard academic calendar:
- Summer and fall courses typically enroll in March and April. Be sure to check program specifics.
- Spring courses typically enroll in October and November. Be sure to check program specifics.
Online course modalities
All Jayhawk Online programs are offered fully online. Jayhawk Online undergraduate degree programs are considered degree-completion programs and only major courses are guaranteed to be offered fully online.
Other modalities to know are synchronous and asynchronous. A synchronous online course is one that meets at specific days and times. An asynchronous online course does not follow a class meeting schedule — you’ll “attend” on your own time. Note that while asynchronous courses don’t meet at specific times, they do often assign due dates throughout the week, to keep coursework on track.
